The Southern Gateway Managed Lanes Project - Public Meeting
CSJs: 0442-02-088, 0261-03-030, 0196-03-269
The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) proposes improvements to Interstate Highway 35 East (I-35E) and U.S. Highway 67 (US 67) within the City of Dallas in Dallas County, Texas. The proposed project is approximately 11 miles long. The proposed improvements collectively referred to as “The Southern Gateway Managed Lanes Project,” consists of improvements to I-35E from US 67 to Reunion Boulevard and along US 67 from Interstate Highway 20 (I-20) to I-35E. The purpose of the proposed project is to improve mobility, traffic operations, address roadway deficiencies, and improve safety.

Since the last series of public meetings held in Summer of 2015, there have been substantial changes to the project based on stakeholder and public input. The most notable change to the project is that the managed lane will not be proposed as a toll facility. Instead, a non-tolled express/managed lane facility open to all users will be implemented. Other changes consist of relocating the managed lane access points, providing wider cross-street accommodations for pedestrian and bicycle accessibility, updates to ramping configuration at the I-35E and Beckley Avenue, adding general purpose lanes, realignment of the mainlane geometry to reduce right-of-way (ROW) impacts and providing accommodations for a future deck park.
